Copper is under selling pressure this morning.

6.03.2014

Top Day Market News

Better than expected European jobless data was offset by worse than expected Chinese manufacturing data. On this, copper is under selling pressure this morning while euro currencies are stable ahead of the much anticipated ECB rate decision tomorrow. Some believe that the ECB decision and subsequent action (or inaction) will be more pivotal to the fortunes of the week than the monthly unemployment report on Friday.

Today we get factory orders but then again, it’s a data point with a short shelf life.
